Chisos No. 2

I grew up in Texas and have been wearing cowboy boots my whole life, and my only regret is not discovering Chisos sooner! These are, without a doubt, the most comfortable boots I’ve ever worn. The quality, craftsmanship, and comfort speak for themselves. As long as they keep making boots like these, I’ll be a customer for life!

My mom has said for a long time I look like Jason Mamoa. Well I went to a baby shower today in these boots and the other dads now say I look like Mamoa. I am very pleased with the rugged aesthetic of these boots.

Had my boots for about two weeks now and they have been the best cowboy boots I have worn. I have two pairs of Lucchese boots and they are not nearly as comfortable and well constructed as the Chisos No. 2. The break in was very easy with the instep being the thing that took longer than the rest of the boot to get comfortable. My size in sneakers like Nike or New Balance is a 9 to 9.5 and I got Size 9D which fit perfectly. Highly recommend these to anyone and get lots of compliments on them.

Easily the most comfortable cowboy boots I ever owned. I took my Chisos to Vegas for the weekend and did a lot of walking in them with no foot pain at all. I normally have pain around my second metatarsal and the ball of my foot, so I usually wear Birkenstocks for the extra support. I was really impressed with how comfortable the Chisos were the entire weekend.

The leather feels great, the boots are very well made, and the quality is noticeable. I own other cowboy boots, but none are as comfortable as these. If you deal with metatarsal or ball of foot pain, I definitely recommend giving Chisos a try.

One heads up for traveling theyre not TSA friendly 😅 and mine triggered the sensors at security so you will have to take them off. Other than that, 5 stars all the way!

I've recently been bitten by the cowboy boot bug. I already had a good pair of basic light brown boots from another brand that suited me well, even though I didn't wear them often. That changed when I learned about Chisos and found out their HQ is right here in Austin, where I live.

I went on a bit of a run: first a pair of amazing python boots, then a very fancy pair of ostrich quill. Finally, I bought my Chisos No. 2s. Simply put, I like the Chisos best of the three. I'm not normally a square toe guy, but the subtle square on the No. 2 is perfect. Something about the look, shape, and design really sets it apart from the other boots I'd just bought.

The boots arrived quickly in a sturdy box, and what's inside is what sets Chisos apart. Each boot came in a high-quality fabric bag, along with a classy touch: a handwritten note from an employee thanking me for the purchase and telling me to enjoy them. That personal touch was incredible.

When I took them out, they filled my house with the smell of rich leather. The leather is sublime — supple and soft — and the color is beautiful.

Now the fit. I wear a 9.5 in all my sneakers, work boots, and other cowboy boots, and I'd call these true to size, if a touch snug. The length is right; the top of the foot and the midfoot are a little tight, but I know they'll break in and the leather will stretch. These feel like the highest quality boots I've ever put on.

My only con is the break-in. I haven't worn them every day over the last few weeks, and that leather is strong, so I've been wearing them around the house to speed things up. They also squeak a bit when I walk. I wasn't sure if that was part of the process, but when I reached out, Chisos told me it goes away as the leather settles.

I also picked up a belt in the same color to match. I wear a 32 in jeans and bought the 34 belt — it fits perfectly, and the holes are set closer together so you can really dial in the fit. Same excellent leather as the boots.

Last was a bootjack, which is a gamechanger if you don't like pulling your boots off the old fashioned way. They slide right off.

I absolutely love these boots. You can tell how much thought and care went into them, and between the quality and the customer service, I'd happily own several more pairs.

So I’ve been working in the boot industry off and on since high school, and worn boots my entire adult life via work and casual wear. However, never western boots as I’ve mostly lived in the Rocky’s and in the PNW, so worn logger style boots, combat boots in the military, and lace up casual boots like Red Wings. Chisos is my first western pair of boots, and I’ve gotta say, they’ve hooked me.

My general assumption of the current western boot industry was based off of what I’d seen with Justin, Tony Lama’s, Lucchese’s etc. charging absurd amounts for fast fashion boots made with crumby synthetic materials which can’t be rebuilt, reconditioned, or re-lasted well. The idea of a riding boot but with all the build quality corporate profit maximization could offer. Not so with Chisos.

These Chisos are built well, plenty of high-quality dairy cow leather which makes them supple but still durable. The hand-dyed leather on my No. 2s has tremendous character, they were day 1 comfortable and have only gotten better after the in-step has conformed to my foot over time. I’ll likely get a second pair soon because I want to beat the ones I have up and keep a pair nice for nights out.

Additionally, I bought mine in-person in their Austin, TX location, and would highly recommend this to any who are willing and able. The staff was knowledgeable, kind, and professional. The location was clean and very nice.

Thanks Chisos.

Amazing boots, amazing service, and quality. Everyone here goes above and beyond to assist you in finding the right boot.

Plain and simple... Just amazing!

One minor complaint. These boots have made my other boots dust collectors. Really like the unique style. Distinctly western but have a look unlike every other square toe roper heel boot out there. Comfortable? Absolutely. The heel is somewhere between a roper and a riding heel, so a little taller profile. I bought the rough-out and love the toughness, not worried about scratching, scraping or scuffling. I wear a 10.5 B but the 10.5 D fits me perfectly! Go to Rose Anvil on YouTube to see the inside of this boot. That’s what convinced me to fork over 600 bucks. Are these boots worth the price? Absolutely.

Overall the boot looks great, but upon close inspection, there are a few quality issues with the build. Main issues is one of the boot straps inner stitching was
off but quite a bit so there is a lot of slack that uncomfortably bends upwards when removing the boot. Even worse was my left boot sole shape in the front was not cut very well and the shape is really odd (almost looks like i'm wearing two right boots) and it sticks out a bit further then the right boot. I figure as with all of my other boots, they will eventually scuff down over time and will not be as noticeable then they are now with being all new and smooth and shiny. The boot comes with a really thick inner (almost athletic) sole. It is too thick for a cowboy boot and you'll have to size up at least a half size if you want to keep it in. Wish they offered a non cushioned insole version with a standard leather bottom. When I removed the inside, sole, my size I ordered fit properly. However the bottom then was an unfinished rough material so I had to put in a thin dr. scholl type insert to cover that up and for a better feel. All in all, if not looking too closely, the boot though looks nice, however at the 600$ price point, I would have expected a better built boot.

Love em. Look good feel good. Great customer support.

Love my Chisos #2 boots. They’re comfortable enough to wear every day, the craftsmanship is outstanding, and they’re built to last. As an Austin-area pastor, I’m proud to support an Austin company that’s making an exceptional product the right way.

At 71 years of age and standing on my feet performing live music for hours on end, I found that this boot really makes a positive difference in regard to comfort

Best boots I’ve ever worn !!!
I truly can’t believe how much I’m enjoying these boots , I’m a couple weeks into them and they look as good as the day I took them out of the box. They get more comfortable with each day I wear them

Love the boots love the look. I like em like this. Beautiful boot.

This boot is the best of the best. The most comfortable and well constructed boot on the market. This boot is a must have for everyday wear or going out on the town.

The No. 2 is my first cowboy boot and offers instant comfort and quality. The premium leather looks incredibly sharp and smells amazing right out of the box.

I received my first pair of Chisos boots. I selected the No. 2 in the brushed brown color. I've heard and read about how good these boots are. Well folks, they aint fibbing. These boots are top notch. From the the quality of the packaging to the boots themselves, Chisos screams quality. I own Lucchese, Tony Lama, Ariat, Tecovas - all good boots for sure - but I've got to stay that these Chisos boots are the best I've worn to date.

They don't skimp on the quality of the leather. The mil thickness is greater than any of the other boots mentioned. The sole and heel stack are extremely well made. I really like the 11" shaft height. They are more comfortable than 12 or 13"; especially if you have big calves.

Included is a hand written thank you note for my purchase. Well done Chisos! I only wish you would offer size EE in the Chisos No. 1 and No. 6.

I don't even like cowboy boots.......but I love my chisos

Boots are clearly excellent quality as I inspected them out of the box. Leather lining, footbed, heel, soles were all better than expected. Popped my feet into them with minimal effort (just enough) and they have become easier each time since. I had my cobbler add a rubberized sole saver and cut down the heals just a bit (1/2 inch, adding a replacement rubber heel saver, as well.) I receive compliments nearly every time I were them. I am very happy and have ordered a belt to match!

I love these boots, you've managed to bring a little bit of Texas to France!
